Who’s the author? Suzanne Mulholland, also known as The Batch Lady, is the bestselling author of The Batch Lady cookbooks. She began her career as a time management trainer and realised she could apply her expertise to cooking, helping thousands of people to cook quick, easy and healthy family meals for the freezer.

Thus The Batch Lady was born, and Suzanne now spends her time developing recipes, doing live and online demonstrations and working with brands, with hundreds of thousands of followers across Instagram and Facebook.

What’s it about? The Batch Lady’s hugely successful method – Shop Once, Cook Once, Eat Well All Week – shows how with a little organisation and just a few hours of prep a week you can produce a week’s worth of delicious, home-cooked meals that the whole family will enjoy. Take the hassle out of mealtimes with these 100 easy recipes, each taking no more than 15 minutes to prepare.

With so many of us juggling the pressures of work, family and food budgets, this book shows how preparing meals for the freezer in advance can save us time, money and food waste. The recipes cover a variety of appliances and cooking methods, from conventional oven to pressure cooker, air fryer, slow cooker and hob, and will help you see your freezer in a new light, where you can just ‘grab and cook’ from a selection of beautifully prepared, portion-controlled dinners.

Each recipe also has all the information you need on how to freeze, store, defrost and reheat your fabulous dinners.

Perfect for: Any home cooks who want to try meal prepping and need quick, healthy, family- and budget-friendly recipes.
